Each day this month the tour will feature the blog or website of one or two designers from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.crochet.org\">Crochet Guild of America<\/a> (CGOA). On her day, each designer will\u00a0create a post specifically for A Tour Through Crochet Country<em>.<\/em>\u00a0Details and the list of designers are\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/crochetville.com\/national-crochet-month-a-tour-through-crochet-country-begins\/\">here<\/a>. I&#8217;m following along each morning with a cup of tea, join me!<\/p>\n<p>Today is my day and I&#8217;d like to introduce you to a resource that I&#8217;m developing &#8211; the <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/lacebuttons.com\/?page_id=744\">Crochet Hook Classification<\/a><\/strong>. It&#8217;s a catalog of crochet hooks, manufacturers and supporting documents such as ads and patents. It will help you answer all of those questions about our favorite needlework tool like &#8211; How Old Is It?, What Is It Made Out Of?, or Who Made It?. It&#8217;s a work in progress so some sections aren&#8217;t complete yet but I&#8217;m constantly adding more material so check back.<\/p>\n<p>Also, if you would like a little information on my background and a little inspiration, you can read my 2005 CGOA keynote address <a title=\"Past, Meet Nancy Nehring\" href=\"http:\/\/lacebuttons.com\/?page_id=229\">Past, Meet Nancy Nehring here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some of my favorite crochet hooks top to bottom &#8211;
